Katherine Heigl had been involved in controversies, which includes her statement about the movie Knocked Up being "a little sexist."
According to Huffingtonpost.com, Heigl told Vanity Fair she encountered problems with her character in that movie. Additionally, she mentioned:
"It paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys. It exaggerated the characters, and I had a hard time with it, on some days. I'm playing such a bitch; why is she being such a killjoy? Why is this how you're portraying women? Ninety-eight percent of the time it was an amazing experience, but it was hard for me to love the movie."
After saying this statement, her co-star Seth Rogen was upset knowning this news. He told Shortlist.com:
"I think that at the time I was offended about it, but since then... I mean, you do so much press that, odds are, you're going to say something f*cking stupid every once in a while."
"Of the million things I say every day, 400 of them are stupid as hell [laughs]. And any one of them might wind up in a newspaper or a magazine at any given time. So at this point I'm much more forgiving of that kind of thing."
